TrichoLab: beauty and wellness PR in Singapore delivering 47 pieces of coverage

The Mission

Tricholab was looking to generate media coverage and awareness around its new outlet opening at Wheelock Place.

It was a very new concept and they were looking for media coverage as third party endorsement for their brand.

Client

TrichoLab, a hair and scalp care brand in Singapore.

Sector

Beauty and wellness, hair and scalp care.

Services

Experiential media relations, launch PR, media reviews.

Headline Result

47 pieces of coverage across beauty, lifestyle and national titles for the TrichoLuxe Heavenly Head Spa launch at Wheelock Place.
The Challenge

TrichoLab opened a new outlet at Wheelock Place and introduced a novel salon concept, the TrichoLuxe Heavenly Head Spa. A premium location needs strong footfall to make commercial sense, and a new experience needs proof before people book it.

Beauty and wellness is a crowded market, and shoppers are careful. Advertising alone would not convince them. TrichoLab brought in Grow Public Relations to earn the authentic, high-authority coverage that acts as third-party validation, which meant getting the value of the spa experience across to selective beauty and lifestyle editors in Singapore.

47

Pieces of Coverage for the TrichoLuxe Heavenly Head Spa Launch
By inviting editors to experience the treatment first-hand, it earned authentic reviews from VOGUE Singapore to The Straits Times
What we did
Grow Public Relations ran an experiential media relations campaign built around the TrichoLuxe Heavenly Head Spa. Rather than announce the opening with a press release, we invited editors to experience the treatment themselves, so their coverage came from genuine first-hand impressions.

We sent precise media invitations to top-tier fashion, beauty and lifestyle editors. The treatment was named a must-try in VOGUE Singapore and featured as a top beauty service in L'OFFICIEL Singapore.

We also targeted niche audiences directly, positioning TrichoLab as a premier destination in ELLE Singapore's guide to Muslimah-friendly hair spas. This put the brand in front of a defined community searching for exactly that experience.

The Results
The campaign generated 47 pieces of earned coverage across digital, print and social media, and the quality matched TrichoLab's premium positioning.

The spa earned dedicated reviews, including a "Tried & Tested" feature in GRAZIA Singapore and a hands-on review by Urban Ladies. TrichoLab was placed among the best hair salons by TimeOut and featured in a national scalp-health story by The Straits Times. The coverage drove awareness for the Wheelock Place outlet and built lasting consumer trust.

Because the salon concept was new to Singapore, letting editors feel the treatment was more convincing than a press release. The approach produced authentic reviews in VOGUE Singapore, L'OFFICIEL Singapore and GRAZIA Singapore, and helped drive 47 pieces of coverage for the Wheelock Place launch.
Why do first-hand media reviews matter when launching a new beauty service?
First-hand media reviews matter because beauty shoppers trust an editor who has tried a service far more than an advertisement. When TrichoLab introduced the TrichoLuxe Heavenly Head Spa, a concept new to the market, Grow Public Relations focused on getting editors into the chair rather than simply announcing the opening. That produced honest, detailed write-ups such as the "Tried & Tested" review in GRAZIA Singapore and the hands-on review by Urban Ladies. Reviews like these answer the questions a potential customer has, carry real credibility, and give a premium service the validation it needs to fill appointments.

The agency knows how to reach beauty editors and turn a novel treatment into the kind of trusted reviews that drive bookings.
How can a beauty brand reach niche audiences such as the Muslimah market through PR in Singapore?

For TrichoLab, Grow Public Relations positioned the TrichoLuxe Heavenly Head Spa within ELLE Singapore's guide to Muslimah-friendly hair spas, putting the brand directly in front of readers looking for that experience.
